حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ شَبِيبٍ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ ثنا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَمَّالُ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ زَبَالَةَ الْمَخْزُومِيُّ حَدَّثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بْنِ زِيَادِ بْنِ صَيْفِيِّ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَنْ صُهَيْبٍ
أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ ؓ مَرَّ بِأَسِيرٍ لَهُ لِيَسْتَأْمِنَ لَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَصُهَيْبٌ جَالِسٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَقَالَ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ مَنْ هَذَا مَعَكَ؟ قَالَ أَسِيرٌ لِي مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ اسْتَأْمَنَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ صُهَيْبٌ لَقَدْ كَانَ فِي عُنُقِ هَذَا مَوْضِعٌ لِلسَّيْفِ فَغَضِبَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ فَرَآهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «مَا لِي أَرَاكَ غَضْبَانَ؟» فَقَالَ مَرَرْتُ بِأَسِيرِي هَذَا عَلَى صُهَيْبٍ فَقَالَ لَقَدْ كَانَ فِي رَقَبَةِ هَذَا مَوْضِعٌ لِلسَّيْفِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «فَلَعَلَكَ آذَيْتَهُ» فَقَالَ لَا وَاللهِ فَقَالَ «لَوْ آذَيْتَهُ لَآذَيْتَ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ»

✧ Abu Bakr ؓ passed by a captive of his to seek protection for him from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while Suhayb was sitting in the mosque. He said to Abu Bakr, “Who is this with you?” He said, “A captive of mine from the polytheists; the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has granted him protection.” Suhayb said, “There was a place for the sword on this one’s neck.” Abu Bakr ؓ became angry. The Prophet ﷺ saw him and said, “Why do I see you angry?” He said, “I passed by this captive of mine in front of Suhayb, and he said, ‘There was a place for the sword on this one’s neck.’” The Prophet ﷺ said, “Perhaps you harmed him.” He said, “No, by Allah.” He said, “If you had harmed him, you would have harmed Allah and His Messenger.”
